[quote=Anonymous]We're starting a new school this fall, and I admit I'm a little disappointed at the outreach to new families, or lack thereof. So far, they've scheduled two school-wide meetups at the school but on weekday afternoons, which is hard for families with working parents and kids in camp. At our previous school, the play dates were on weekends and also by grade, which was much more conducive to meeting classmates and their families before school started. And I know private schools (maybe some public schools; I just don't know of any that does this) assign each new family with a buddy family to help them with the transition. Trying hard not to let this color our first impression of the school, though, because I want my kids to feel welcome! And yes, I do plan to volunteer and become involved with the school community. . .[/quote]
